This Bites

Sometimes, things go horribly wrong.

Take my eating a caramel. Normally, that would be a fun experience.

Unless the caramel pulls a crown lose.

And that's what happened to me.

Now, I've got to get me an appointment with a dentist and get this thing fixed. I'm not sure if I'm going to the dentist that put this thing in to start with, or if I'm going to go to a different one. I wasn't exactly all that thrilled with the last dentist, and that's part of why I'm overdue for a dental checkup.

Hey Bro, Why don't you go to Wally World and get this temporary glue stuff...no, I don't know the name of it. If I did, I would write it here :) Any way, that stuff works really well on loose crowns. It is like chewing gum, and it will hold it in for a LONG time...you might not have to go to the dentist after all.
